<p>Would it be better to add comments with links to existing issues and likewise the need to spawn an issue or to add these comments to the Hackmd file?</p>

<p>This is regarding today's meta story that you and Ryan developed.  Emmanuel will be writing up the narrative.  The plan is for me to check ideas presented in the meta story against existing issues to identify and connect those and to identify the parts that would spawn a new issue.</p>

<p>So I'm wondering if you would prefer that I add those references as comments to the issue that Emmanuel posts in the repo or do so in the Hackmd file.</p>

<p>Well I dont know about the <em>workflow</em> but I think it'd be great if, in the finished product, <span class="user-mention" data-user-id="255022">@Emmanuel Antony</span> had references to other stories or issues if those stories are not yet written.</p>

<p>On another note, what should be the name of the story, "Barbara's epic async journey" ?? Or maybe "Barbara wants async helpers"?</p>

<p>Morals:</p>
<ul>
<li>Functionality is found either in "framework"-like crates (e.g., tokio) <em>and</em> spread around many different ecosystem crates.</li>
<li>It's sometimes difficult to discover where this functionality lives.</li>
<li>Additionally, the trouble of non-runtime-agnostic libraries becomes very apparent.</li>
<li>Helpers and utilities might have analogues across the ecosystem, but they are different in subtle ways. </li>
<li>Some patterns are clean if you know the right utility crate and very painful otherwise.</li>
</ul>
